Not laying yet. Hopefully soon though! (I'm guessing it will be after winter. Maybe earlier)

oh hopefully soon. I can't wait to see. I am so tempted to try to hatch a couple of Cochin/ EE crosses now! LOL

How old are they? I have 7 pullets right now that were born April 8 and only 3 are laying. 2 of my Cochins haven't started yet and my 2 Lt Brahma's haven't started yet.

I don't know their exact age. They probably hatched sometime in June.

Not laying eggs yet. I'll keep y'all updated when they start laying, though!

Update!
We got our first blue egg the day before yesterday, and the second one today!! Gorgeous coloring!

This is the blue/green egg compared to our other eggs.

And here’s the blue egg compared to a white egg! I’m very pleased with such a vibrant blue/green color!

It almost seems olive colored;

I’m so happy with our colorful egg basket now! The blue definitely completes it!

Wow! They look like ThinMint (my chicken in my pfp)! ThinMint's father is a cochin bantam with something else mix and her mother is a BCM. Pretty birds! I love how fluffy they are

WOW! What an amazing egg!!!!!!! now I just may have to try to hatch out a Cochin/EE cross! LOL

What color egg did mom lay? My EE lays extremely light eggs so just a tint of a blueish/greenish coloring to them.
